Shirayuki By Eve

Betrayed by blood. Banished by fate. Crowned by vengeance. On the day her sister was crowned Luna, Aria was cast out like dirt — mocked, humiliated, and exiled for being “weak.” She never shifted. She never screamed. She simply disappeared. Until now. Saved by rogues. Forged in darkness. Marked by the Moon Goddess herself, Aria returns not as the girl they abandoned, but as the monster they created. She’s no longer the forgotten daughter of a disgraced Alpha. She’s the storm howling at their gates. As the NightBane Pack crumbles under famine, betrayal, and fear, Aria rises — ruthless, unrelenting, and more powerful than any Luna they’ve ever known. But behind her vengeance brews something even darker — a prophecy, a forbidden love, and a choice that could change everything. Will she burn them to ash… or rise above the fire and wear the crown they swore she’d never touch? A tale of betrayal, rebirth, revenge — and the savage power of a Luna who was never meant to survive.

“This weak, pathetic omega thought she could be my mate and my Luna.” He paused, letting everyone feel his disgust. “She cried for attention, and begged for my cock, and whispered sweet things into my ears. But she is worthless. She has no strength. No pride. No grace. She is just an empty whore.” The crowd gasped, some nodded. Their eyes followed his every word. My legs turned weak as I felt flooded with helplessness. He looked down at me like I was a bug and said. “Aria Blake. Mate of the Alpha no more. You mean nothing to me. Tonight, I cast you out.” **** Aria Blake was the quiet omega everyone ignored, the one no one thought would ever matter. So when she discovered her fated mate was Jaxon Storm, the cold and powerful Alpha of the West, she believed her life was finally about to change. She was wrong. Jaxon crushed her hope, humiliated her, and cast her out without a second thought. Heartbroken and alone, Aria fled into the dark forest. She thought she’d lost everything—until she learned she was carrying his child. Hunted and terrified, Aria tried to disappear. But fate wasn’t finished. Four powerful Alphas found her. Each one protected her. Each one awakened something inside her. And each one turned out to be her second chance mates. Not just one. Not two. But four. Now, Aria is no longer the weak girl they once overlooked. She's a mother to be, a Luna in the making, and a storm the Alphas never saw coming. And when Jaxon comes back to claim what he threw away, he’ll learn the hard way that you don’t cast aside a queen and expect her to stay down.

She was a healer, sworn to save lives. He was a killer, sworn to protect his empire by any means. When Dr. Aria’s quiet world collides with Raian — the cold, dangerous mafia boss feared by all — she is pulled into a game of blood and secrets she never wanted to play. Bound by a debt she can’t escape, Aria must navigate the shadows of his ruthless world, even as her heart betrays her. Can love bloom between innocence and sin? Or will their hearts be forever tied by chains stronger than fate itself?

Some loves don’t start with a smile. They start with a curse. --- When quiet, bookish law intern Luna Carter is sent to inspect an abandoned church on the edge of town, she doesn't expect to find a hidden red box sealed beneath the floor. Inside it — a ring, a scroll, and the beginning of a fate she never asked for. The moment she reads the ancient words aloud, she awakens something forgotten. Something dangerous. And someone who’s been cursed for centuries. Asher Grayson — Willow Creek’s youngest and coldest city official — has lived a life of control, silence, and unexplained pain. But when the curse buried in his past begins to stir again, the one person connected to it… is her. Drawn together by a spell cast lifetimes ago, Luna and Asher must uncover a forgotten love story—one that ended in betrayal, magic, and death. The only way to break the curse? Relive everything. Remember everything. And risk falling in love again… even if it destroys them both.

One accidental pregnancy later, and she’s not just expecting, she’s carrying the heir of Kaelen Thorne. And Kaelen? He’s not your average dad-to-be. He’s an enigmatic billionaire Alpha werewolf, and this baby is everything to him—like, the key to his entire future and his pack’s. To protect her child, Seraphina gets dragged into Kaelen’s dangerous world, forced to play the part of his adoring Luna in a high-stakes game of shifter politics that could easily get her killed.

There’s an undeniable, raw fire sparking between them, and beneath Kaelen’s harsh, dominant Alpha exterior, Seraphina glimpses a man who’s fiercely protective and surprisingly tender. But there’s a massive problem: he’s a shifter, she’s human, and he’s destined for a true werewolf mate, meaning their intense connection seems doomed from the start. With assassins on her trail, Kaelen’s scornful ex-mates making her life hell, and the shadows of her own past creeping in, Seraphina is caught. Can she navigate this treacherous game and guard her heart from the Alpha who commands her body’s surrender, or will the very man she’s forced to deceive be the only one who can save her? And could he ever truly choose a human, even if she’s carrying his precious heir?

I'll also direct him as such in the novel). are twins born on the same day. Sean, was just few seconds older than Wang jie.

I'm even confused with the summary. I only have the idea. I suggest you read and enjoy. Additional note: no r-rated events maybe cuss words but I'll try to be as innocent as I've claimed to be. I'm an innocent mind. just enjoy the brothers who go through ups and downs with great turn of events and later of course, a reassured fate. _____________________________________ Remember to support your lovely author.

He trained in everything a little magic, a little swordplay, a lot of creativity. But on the day his class awakened, the verdict was final: Generalist.

Armed with a spark of magic, a wrist-mounted crossbow, and more determination than common sense, Lars is thrown into an elite apprenticeship he barely qualifies for. He’ll face monsters, trials, and deadly classmates all while trying to earn a certification that could make or break his future. Because if the world won’t give him a class worth respecting, he’ll force them to respect what he becomes.

I've transmigrated into a game of an apocalyptic world. The game was called "Lunar Eclipse", it's about fighting against strange looking monsters... and It was a virtual game. It was only a game but all the graphics and designs looked too realistic! I almost died of heart attack because of getting killed in game... Anyhow, if you gets to the end of the game then it's said you'll be granted any wish you want. So I just have to beat the game and I can transmigrate into my favorite novels instead! Well, if only it was that easy... It's a survival action game said to be "impossible" to beat by it's players. And I've never beaten it, no one's ever done so. It's probably because the wish you get at the end is really true... What if I wish to become a god?! Well, I'll figure it out if I survive to the end... but I don't have much hopes for it. Luckily, other people will also get transmigrated here and hopefully I'll be able to make friends with some of them and survive with them together until the end! Or I hope it will be that way...

With beauty as captivating as a field of lilies, she is the prized daughter of an ambitious father who cares more for his reputation than his children’s happiness. When Álvaro Montenegro, the arrogant heir to the Alpha title, sets his sights on her as his chosen Luna, María Jośe is desperate for a way out. But everything changes when the Moon Goddess answers her prayer in the most unexpected way: María Jośe discovers she is an Omega—wolfless and the lowest rank in the pack. Once held in awe, she is now shunned; a source of shame to her father and a target for ridicule in the pack. As her life turns upside down , María Jośe's hatred for the pack grows.

He didn’t want me, Axel. What does that make me to you?” “I don’t care about Álvaro’s foolishness. It's his loss for losing a woman like you.” “Okay, I must confess. I'm not worried about him either. It's Rosa… you're getting engaged to my sister in a month!” “Let me remind you, María José—I don’t give a fuck about that either.” No matter how hard I jerked, Axel wasn’t letting me go. And part of me so, so foolishly didn’t want him to.
